I'll say it again no one wants to split because they like each other and because the other side is awful and no one wants to play with then. The few people who made the jump from nihilum to the opposition instantly regretted it. Bring in the fresh blood via transfers. Also fixing resists will go a long way to allowing competition to actually compete with fewer numbers. Item loot, particularly if this server went FV ruleset on droppable loot, would allow alternate progression for people and perhaps discourage others from just joining the guild on top as the only way to get pixels.

Content existing...not a community ambassador's approval of what the highest % of people want. I think you're getting caught up in that I'm not here to be persuaded by what everyone thinks of server-specific rules. I'm just listening, giving opinions, and asking questions.

Cool

People just need to lighten up.
can think of a lot of players both nihi and rebels who just have no sense of fun in the game. ill admit i also was way too immersed at one point a while ago with the trolling.
Without my flower core pals id have quit by now.
I can understand the whole straight faced, slighlty angry eq playing most players here adopt but i pray you all lighten up soon.

The onus is on you to prove such. If there was RMT by the guild you would see again people you never heard of or who aren't in nihilum walking around in end game gear. But yet you don't. I do the dkp logs with thrilla. Every item is tracked. Stop making up bullshit. On the other hand there is an RMT market for accounts but that's not a guild sponsored phenomenon.
Every item is tracked? So you tellin me you have access to every bank alt and account and compare against the DKP logs and can account for everything?

As a further response to nilbog, a guild here Force tried on multiple occasions to merge with nihilum but was rebutted as being bad for the server. There's plenty of people to contest they just are all choosing for a variety of reasons to sit on the sidelines.
The reason being that there are simply not enough people with the time, ability, resources, etc. to meaningfully contest you guys and there won't be in the future. Yellow text and resist changes are not enough to jumpstart the server into health.

You are operating under the incorrect assumption that Everquest can successfully perpetuate without any interference. Maybe on live with thousands of players, but not on an emu, especially with the time commitment required. It simply has to start over again.

Also, I am not suggesting that Nihilum is/is the only group participating in RMT, I am just saying that to deny it is going on at all is laughable.

The RMT thing is dumb not going to address any further. When you see random people with Selos drums COF's dragon hero bracers trak bps etc that they couldn't have earned on their own then I'll be interested in your story. Until then its just all baseless hyperbole with some shady shit from 2011 mixed in that I personally don't give two fucks about.

Azrael/Force had 50 people a few weeks ago, which is more than we ever have on. Here's your solution if you want to compete:

-Don't shit on your members who don't pvp, they won't help you with pve then
-Help other people in your guild. I've never had more than 20k in bank cause I give items to guildies and newbies
-Don't spam ooc and boards with negative shit and RL attacks, it doesn't make your guild look more appealing

The reason there is no competition will ultimately always be the competition themselves. Holocaust was too elitist and failed to recruit a great many people who were considered "bad" or that they had prior grudges with from old boxes. Yes the holo ban blah blah hurt but they came back and won pvp the day after suspension lifted. They lost all of uprising because of the members they had like that dominos necro who would train specters on people 24/7 or slathar who trained non stop etc etc. founding fathers failed because they didn't want to merge with holocaust because of prior box grievances. So they couldn't win anything and lost the members who wanted pve progression to nihilum. Other guilds like brotherhood etc never wanted to merge trying to do it all on their own and of course they failed as well as members got sick of waiting. Red dawn same shit everyone hating each other too many chiefs etc etc. just face it dudes the opposition here is awful and nothing is going to change that. You need new players and fixes with transfers will make that happen.

Having said all that it does piss me off that were raiding shit like faydedar with 43 people but I don't have any power to change that and again I'm not about to jump ship over it.
